Description
Compressed air and gases contain high levels of liquid water vapour. Effective water removal leads to reduced maintenance costs, enhanced system operation and improved product quality. Hypercool water cooled aftercoolers represent the vital first step in this process, installed immediately downstream of compressors or blowers they eliminate over 80% of the water present within compressed air and gas systems.
Controlled compressed air or gas temperature is essential for many industrial applications for efficient operation. The air or gas temperature can be very high at the compressor outlet. Hypercool water cooled aftercoolers can control this. They have been specifically designed to achieve maximum cooling at minimum cost, within a package designed to withstand the rigors of modern industry.
The ribbed tubing design offers high heat exchange efficiency with minimal pressure drops. Hypercool’s extensive range of models includes those with fixed and removable aftercoolers, high pressure configurations and versions with special materials for any gas and water quality requirement.
A high quality aftercooler properly sized is an excellent investment that can help ensure that the compressed air or gas system works properly thereby guaranteeing the quality of the finished product.
